Africa Today host Walter Turner interviews Emory Douglas who is the Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party.
The multifaceted Mark Gergis takes us through a few decades' worth of his wide-ranging travels (musical and otherwise), from growing up in the East Bay and discovering Negativland in 1985 to co-founding Mono Pause with Peter Conheim in the early '90s to traveling throughout Southeast Asia and the Middle East in the 2000s and beyond.
We also talk about his involvement with Sublime Frequencies (which dates back to the I Remember Syria and Cambodian Cassette Archive compilations from 2003 and 2004, respectively), the relationship between the Oakland and San Francisco scenes in the '90s and '00s, and the common threads that unite his recordings/performances as Porest with his archival/curatorial work. (Oh yes, and also about assassinating Henry Kissinger—metaphorically, of course.)
